Beskrivelse af The Water Cure
The Water Cure is a novel written by Ring Lardner, an American author and journalist. The book was first published in 1930 and is set in the fictional town of Shillingburg, Illinois. The story follows the life of a young man named Enoch Robinson, who is a talented baseball player and a member of the town's baseball team.Enoch's life takes a turn when he falls in love with a young woman named Lucy, who is the daughter of the team's coach. However, Lucy is already engaged to another man, and Enoch's love for her becomes an obsession. As Enoch's mental state deteriorates, he becomes increasingly violent and erratic, and his behavior becomes a threat to himself and those around him.The Water Cure is a dark and disturbing novel that explores themes of obsession, violence, and mental illness. It is a powerful portrayal of the human psyche and the destructive forces that can take hold of a person's mind. Lardner's writing is raw and unflinching, and his characters are complex and deeply flawed. The Water Cure is a haunting and unforgettable novel that will leave readers thinking long after they have turned the last page.You see, I had it doped that Bishop was afraid o' water or else he wouldn't of turned down all our swimmin' parties. I wouldn't leave him a chance to duck out o' this because I wouldn't tell nobody where we was goin'. It'd be a surprise trip. And they was a good chance that they'd both be sick if it was the least bit rough, and that'd help a lot. I thought of Milwaukee first, but picked St. Joe because it's dry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
